Harrison L5 oiler nipples

[Sam JohnstonParticipant @samjohnston94399]

I sure this has been ask but a search is not finding it, but can anyone tell me what thread size the oiler nipples are on a Harrison L5 lathe? Looking through ebay I can only find 2 ba or 6mm x 10mm.

Hi Sam have you measured one of the old ones or the hole that they fit into. More information may help.

Big problem I have is most are missing and I cant be sure the ones left are original. The three I have left are 6.3mm or 250 thou so probably 1/4" so if I got 1/4 grease nipple would those do the sam job?

It depends on what shape the other oil nipples are and what shape your oil gun is. If you get grease nipples which have a spring loaded end you can remove the spring and ball if that helps. You can try these no connection or maybe you have a local supplier.
